Luxury ethical fashion from Tibet

14.04.09 / illustration / Author: admin

I read an article of some fashion brand and found that it was a quite nice story.
They produce knits made from luxury yak fiber and introduce those items in the world high fashion market.  This animal, yak, only lives around the region of Himalaya in Western China, where poor Tibetan people keep their traditional lifestyle.
The purpose of  this company is to support Tibetans and help them to earn a long-term sustainable living by trading the yak down with their company directly.
